Shocked Bollywood celebs mourn Michael Jackson's death
I still can't believe Michael Jackson is gone! When my dad told me about his death, I thought he was joking. I've always been a huge fan of Michael and I'm shattered. To call him an icon would be an understatement.

MJ was an inspiration for all of us. He revolutionised dancing with his moonwalk. He died too young. I loved most of his songs, especially Thriller. MJ's trademark gloves and hat made a fashion statement. He was one of the best performers of the millennium. I repent missing his concert in Mumbai. I had the tickets, but turned back when I saw the huge crowd.u00a0

Black or White was one of the first western pop tracks I was introduced to in my early teens. We've lost a musical genius and a splendid performer, but his music will live forever.

I'm in total shock. For me MJ is the greatest, a true legend. The King will live on through his music.
Malaika Arora
MJ was a gentle soul, a remarkable musician, and a true rock star. I want to remember him by his music. I am heartbroken by his death. The people who insulted him during his lifetime by calling him Wacko Jacko are now singing his praises. May the soul of this great achiever rest in peace.
